"What could easily have been a difficult and long-winded read, is nothing of the sort. The authors offer plenty of further reading and food for thought. They sum up: 'We are only at the beginning of a new era of information security that will likely change many times before reaching some sort of steady state - if such a steady state is even possible.'"--Professional Security Magazine Online, March 31, 2014 "In each of the 13 chapters in this book, there is a brief presentation of a type of cyber attack, followed by a detailed account of what can happen as a result of the attack. The chapter then concludes with an actual case study of an attack using the method just described. I think the book should be on the shelf of every professional concerned with computer security."--ComputingReviews.com, December 26, 2013 ". Paulo Shakarian, Jana Shakarian, and Andrew Ruef, with backgrounds in the US military, academia, and industry, present a number of case studies of actual incidents of cyber warfare that have actually occurred. Most of these studies concern incidents that have occurred only since 2006 thus refuting the prior common view in the cyber security community that cyber warfare was largely a fiction created by media hype."--Reference & Research Book News, December 2013 "There are still many people who think that the whole concept of cyberwar is overhyped. This book is an excellent counter to that: it shows that cyberwar has the ability to disrupt our lives and our economy, and that it is being fought right now."--Network Security Newsletter, October 2013 ".I think it is a good start point for people to use this in their syllabus for teaching IW/CW today.We need a more informed populace as well as government and I think this book would be a good start."--Krypt3ia blog, August 30, 2013 "This book will give you a good base on the topic of cyber warfare and its different aspects. The military-style approach to the subject turned out to be perfect - the book is a balanced blend of history and technical details that makes it very easy to read."--HelpNetSecurity.org, July 24, 2013 "For Soldiers and leaders engaging in the ongoing battles of cyberspace, this book will be indispensable."--Lieutenant General (ret.) Charles P. Otstott "The most thorough study to date of the many facets of cyber-warfare - for scholars and practitioners alike."--Gerardo I. Simari, Senior Researcher, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Oxford
